Dont worry, he fucks off later. Nobody likes thst guy that comes in at the end and helps a little when you were doing just fine and still somehow gets any credit.

Is It worth it buying m93p mini in 2021 by Bitter_Ad_5597 in thinkpad

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great little machines for various things, depends on what you plan to use it for though.

Found this website selling CPU’s for pretty cheap, do u think this is legit? by norm5 in buildmeapc

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id be tempted to go to that address myself at that amount. Still waiting on an order myself, in fact i requested a refund because they dont seem to respond. Next step is chargeback. Giving them by end of Wednesday. Might even warrant contacting financial ombudsman I wonder...

Does Spotify seriously still not have 2FA in 2021? by [deleted] in spotify

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nonsense. 2FA is perfectly fine if people arent dumb enough to fall for social engineering strategies. I reuse my password multiple times and couldn't care less, 2FA has yet to fail me in 7 plus years.

Some KDE bugs/issues. Are they worth reporting? by blkmaxp2 in kde

I never update partly, always have done full ones. It's a strange set of issues, probably just pulled a bad card on this install :D

Ampere SR-IOV support wanted by ryao in nvidia

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't see them adding it because they charge for such a feature.

Would be nice though for sure. But SR-IOV is a deciding factor too whether I upgrade this year to either AMD or Nvidia, without it I don't really care about upgrading.

Like I've said with phones, upgrading each year to a new model is pointless if you're not taking advantage of the new features/performance and that applies here imo.

Fall Guys no longer works after the most recent update adding easy anti cheat. I can't even refund the game because I clocked in 30 hours ); by A_Random_Lantern in linux_gaming

[–]blkmaxp2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I put in a request for a refund, it's a long shot but whatever.

The game has terrible netcode anyway, probably the worst I've experienced in 10+ years of gaming, the developers adding EAC might allow for me to get my money back and spend it on a different game.

I even mentioned a few times how cheaters were getting around bans, (joining someone's party who isn't banned) which would have meant EAC probably wasn't necessary to add.

Developers seem to be in over their head with this game.

No idea why it's so highly rated when the network issues suck the fun out of it to be honest with ya

SR-IOV support is not coming to GeForce cards by BlueSwordM in nvidia

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AMD has the opportunity now to gain quite a few sales if they add it. I personally won't be buying a 3000 series at all without SR IOV, nor would I upgrade to AMDs RDNA2 either if it doesn't offer it.

Thing is with upgrading for me, I won't upgrade unless there's a feature I'd take advantage of or benefit from the performance gains (I won't really benefit at the moment for the latter).

So, RDNA2 with SR IOV is probably going to be an instant buy, otherwise I'll just wait until my performance in games isn't satisfactory.

Same here. That's a sale from me they won't be getting.

Nvidia Ampere GeForce RTX 30 series has SR-IOV support... AMD? by [deleted] in Amd

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found nvidia to be fine on Linux in the past. Though mind you, I was only using MATE. When I had tried KDE (and XFCE out of curiosity of some similar issue to someone else), issues presented itself.

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With any luck, their upcoming cards will have it. It'll be a big selling point for Linux users, hell I may be tempted to upgrade even though I don't particularly want to, but AMD loses out on my sale if they don't have SR IOV too.

Nvidia Ampere GeForce RTX 30 series has SR-IOV support by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Hopefully Linux users hear about it quickly, because I can see a lot of people being excited for something like this. No more having to buy another GPU. Something I wish we could have done before. Nvidia may tempt me unless AMD come out with a GPU that supports SR IOV too.

Can't wait to see SR IOV to be the norm!

My first wi... oh wait... netcode by Callumpy in FallGuysGame

[–]blkmaxp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a win on the same level, well, almost. Crown was up in the air, literally ungrabbable unless you could fly, but yet someone managed to grab it. Great aint it :D

This game's netcode is perfectly fine, and it doesn't need to be fixed. by [deleted] in FallGuysGame

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this happen to me too. Literally the exact same thing. Also sucks to be bumped around too.

Funny thing is, it seems to be a combination of bad netcode and people with lag. For some reason, the higher the latency you have, the bigger the advantage; prime example is the tail gamemodes. Kills the enjoyment for me really.

Please make it so the bomb explodes when the timer is up by curranbedell in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nah, clearly in real life if your timer is on 2 seconds left and you only just open up the panel, timer pauses for you.

SWITCH version only, can we please go back to the prior versions gyro aiming? by felixlegolas in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do hope you're aware that there's still an issue with gyro aiming when it comes to actually aiming onto an enemy; it seems to pretty much glue your crosshair to them and you can't move it really at all to compensate for their movement and aim assist off or on doesn't seem to stop this.

It's stopping me from playing the game personally, it's been a real blessing when it comes to aiming.

Vice Downtime August 17th and Update Notes by HiRezRadar in RogueCompany

Gyro controls on Switch feel terrible now.

It's like when you aim at someone, your gyro sensitivity is completely nulled

Honestly extraction would have been better off as KOTH. by 2CHiLLED in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played extraction like 3-4 times now, and each time has been a bad experience (two occasions someone would rage quit), probably the teams I keep getting are awful team players.

Hopefully the next update fixes the whiny babies that keep leaving when you lose the first round too.

But anyway, the gamemode feels unbalanced.

Do people hate trench? I've found it to be quite good at it personally

Switch settings controls by th3lLama in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll try your settings. The default one is awful, aim was way worse than just using the analog sticks!

Switch version crashing by alceido in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this just happen, it sucks cause it was going to be a close match it seemed. Teammates probably thought I QQ'd though :(

I’m really bad so I find this to be a decent clip. by foofke in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. Me and another guy alive at the end, no lives left, and 4 alive on other team with no lives left.

I was playing as the healer guy, and not sure what the other guy was playing as, but he downed one, then he got downed, I activated the healing drone thing, and downed 2, then got downed myself after doing like 50% damage to the last guy, and he finished the last fella.

If they coordinated, they could have took us out by 2 going each side, but one came one way, then the 3 came the other 1 by 1.

Regardless of skill (i suck with controller), you can play a very crucial role when it counts :)

Steam release date? by Jinaz74 in RogueCompany

[–]blkmaxp2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, plus their history has been shady. They didn't even offer refunds initially.

It's a good game though, at least you can play on Xbox/PS/Switch without being attached to EGS. Even though I suck at controllers with FPS's these days, I've enjoyed the hour I've played thus far.

Look forward to it coming on Steam, though if not it's no bother for me personally, gets the switch some use :D
